I'm in a similar philosophical camp, although it is hard to observe
sometimes.

As previously mentioned, Perforce the profit-making company will donate
licenses to open source projects. I've just come from a Perforce
conference, and can attest to the fact that it's a geek's geek company
with no readily apparent jerks around.

This does not, however, address the religious conflict some people have
with SW companies that <shudder> make money. Look at the raft Red Hat
gets from some quarters for daring to have a bottom line.
